News

Myers was released from Philadelphia's training camp and subsequently reassigned to AHL Lehigh Valley on Thursday.

Impact

The 20-year-old blueliner will begin his professional career in Lehigh Valley, having spent the past four seasons playing major junior for Rouyn-Noranda. Despite going undrafted, Myers is a highly-touted prospect who tallied 35 points in 34 games in 2016-17 and has great size -- standing 6-feet-5 inches tall and weighing in at 209 pounds. While the organization doesn't see him as NHL-ready at the moment, Myers certainly has the potential to be an impact player for seasons to come.

News

Myers (lower body) returned to the ice for Friday's training camp session, Sam Carchidi of the Philadelphia Inquirer reports.

Impact

Myers exited Wednesday's exhibition for precautionary reasons, but the 20-year-old has evidently already left that ailment in the rear-view mirror. The 6-foot-5 rearguard racked up 35 points (10 goals, 25 assists) in 34 games with the Rouyn-Noranda Huskies of the QMJHL last season, and could put himself in position to win a spot on the Flyers' Opening Night roster with a strong training camp. However, it also wouldn't be surprising to see him start the 2017-18 campaign with AHL Lehigh Valley. Either way, Myers is a player fantasy owners participating in dynasty leagues will want to keep an eye on.

News

Myers will not return to Wednesday's exhibition for precautionary reasons after suffering a lower-body injury.

Impact

Myers tallied a whopping 35 points in 34 games in junior hockey last season and stands a chance at cracking the Flyers' Opening NIght roster with a strong training camp. To avoid any early complications with that, the team will hold him out the remainder of the rookie contest, but it sounds as though the issue is relatively minor in nature.
